Musk is actively supporting the neo-nazi Afd in Germany. Whatever his reasons are, he is now the same type of oligarch as Henry Ford was when he supported Nazi Germany.

In a recent interview with the party chair of the Afd, it was clear that he is just entirely clueless about the Germany and history in particular.

There are a lot of issues in Europe, but it is far from clear if neocon deregulation is really helping anything at all.



Is this interview worthwhile seeing to understand his state if mind? Or does it take a German to understand how clueless he is on this topic?


It's in English. I found it worthwhile to watch, for a while. Musk really wasn't too bad but the amount of nonsense coming from Alice Weidel was a bit too much for me in the end. To Musk's credit, he even corrected her a couple of times.


I think it isn't worthwhile, because the level of lies and fabrication is just insane, e.g. coming to the agreement that Hitler was a communist.


You might find it worthwhile to watch after all, because they didn't agree on that.

Note that I don't agree with the AFD at all, however what the media writes about Musk is often so far from the truth that I tend to watch or read the sources when I have a chance.
